  1. send Fritz over to get it moved ....
  2. If you don't try ..... the car will be there for the next 10 years
  3. as I said Jumbo, take the bottle down, tell him it's a chinese new year gift, he might want to have a drink with you ... then get a feel for his tone etc ..... see if you can politely ask if the nice car can be moved 20 feet ... and explain why
  4. and there lies your problem, ignorance, obnoxious, uneducated .... they wouldn't know courtesy if it bit them on the a__ . and pecking order because that's why the wife is reluctant. It's bs ..... but TIT .... and that's how it is ....
  5. yes ... agree ... Let a Thai handle it .... certainly not a farang, as that will get nothing done ... . a farang telling a Thai ( policeman's brother ) what to do ..... i don't think so
  6. I had a return yesterday Crossy on Lazada, no problem ... on PC got the page and everything, now pending shop approval. Another issue I have with both Lazada & Shopee is when you chat message any of the in Thai & also English ... and photos and ask a simple question .... you get an answer probably 30 % of the time ..... they never seem to want to answer a question about an item. It's just buy it .... or I don't care !!
  7. yeah Fritz, you go and fix it up ... charge in Fritz like a bull at a gate and demand the Thai shift it !! and we'll come visit you in hospital if you make that far ... 😂
  8. Thank you Richard, just goes to show we think the same on how to solve a problem sensibly ... that's rare on AN.
  9. you have to be on your guard and watch them every second .... life taken in an instant .... just through negligence
  10. what horrible news to read .... the poor little fella was only 4 .... very very sad ... rip little fella.
  11. maybe you should be the pilot .... or a NASA astronaut
  12. so you too would like to question an Airline Captains authority and decisions.
  13. what ' and leave his grab taxi job .....
  14. What about the current AN website .... are we going to get the right hand bottom arrow back ???
  15. Just do a double deal with the Chinese ..... get the Fighter Jets from China & the submarines in the same deal. Buy 1 get 1 type of deal ..... i'm sure the Chinese will be interested.
  16. unfortunately, that won't work here .... it would work back in the west but it's not the same culture here. there are several reasons that ' standing up for your rights ' won't work .... lack of communication .... the owner or Policeman's brother won't understand a scrap of English, hence the discussion gets muted and misunderstood. another reason is the confrontational aspect .... thai's do not care for confrontation or argument, and I can guarantee any request by farang to move the car will end up as an argument, then the guy get on the booze one night and comes to his house angry and who knows what can happen. I've been here a long time and I know how Thai's think .... it's not at home where you would go see the guy and tell him to move it.
  17. I won't say .... many words come to mind .
  18. Jumbo .... that's a tricky situation to be in. Firstly, your wife is doing what any Thai would do, they won't complain or say anything that makes loss of face for the owner, it's just how Thai's are as they don't want any confrontation. as for the guy just turning his back ... I'm not sure but either he didn't understand a word you said or he's just being Thai arrogant and obnoxious as they can be. Let the wife handle it' stay out of it, Thai's won't listen to a farang. Go buy a cheap bottle of Blend285 whiskey and convince the wife to go down to the house and talk to the Policemen's brother, tell him it's a gift for chinese new year or something .... then have her ask him if it's at all possible to re-locate the nice car as you can't get in your garage space ... tell her to offer any assistance if they need any. then see how that goes ..... That's your only hope for getting some action .. imo
  19. If the kid had rich parents the wheels would be turning and he would be off scott free in a few months. TIT ... money talks ... losers walk .... or something like that '
  20. next they'll be paying people to come here .... haha
  21. A question ...... how will she pay her rent ? doesn't she have other backpacker friends that can help her financially ? how will she pay for her meals tomorrow and the next day ? it just doesn't add up ....
  22. But Thai Netizens want more .... they want justice
  23. oh the Irony of these people ........... unbelievable hypocrites ...
  24. you contact the young cashier at your 7-11 and have him or her come around and climb the ladder while you hold it steady.
